Lux Travel - Ibiza & Grenada

Well today on Long Island it is sweltering hot and so humid. Anyway its summer right so what can I expect.

Anyway, from time to time I'm going to list some cool places to travel to, both international and national. Alot of the places I've been too, others I'll get too soon enough. They are all my unbiased opinions. Each selection also receives an Lux Lorraine(LL) rating on a scale of 1-10. Obviously the scores are not going to be too low, because these are my personal picks.
So, what are you waiting for, go have some fun. Enjoy!

1. Ibiza, Balearic Islands (Spain)
Why? Just because.
Go if? You love to party and enjoy dance music and dont mind having the beach nearby!
Stay where? El Hotel Pacha.
Why? Because of its futuristic luxe design AND because the Pacha nightclub is directly opposite AND as a hotel guest you receive free club entry.
What else? The hotel guestlist reads like a cool list of world class dj's and serious partygoers. Paul Oakenfold and Pete Tong are just 2 of the A list dj's who have played there. Also dont miss going to the roof terrace, where all the fun really happens.
LL score? Fabness-8 Luxeness-8 Funness- 10

2. Grenada, W.I
Why? To relax, unwind and enjoy natures beauty peacefully.
Go if? You need to exhale from everyday stress, and love the bliss and tranquility of your own island paradise.
Stay where? Laluna.
Why? Because simply put, its heaven on earth.
What else? The 'hotel' is made up of cottages and villas, with some of the cottages being as close to 40 feet from the ocean/beachfront. With limited number of guests, privacy and quiet time are ensured. Also their low/off season is now, during the summer which basically means that the rates are the cheapest during this time.
